Answer 1

1. storage form of lipids - Triacyl glycerol

Lipids are stored in the form of triacylglycerols which are made up of glycerol and 3 fatty acids. In plants, seed oil mostly contain stored lipid in the form triacylglycerol.

2. large particle that transports dietary fats through the blood stream - chylomicrons

Chylomicrons are lipoproteins which help in the transport of dietary lipids from intestine to other parts of body.

3. secreted by the gall bladder to help emulsify dietary fats in the intestines - Bile salts

Bile salts are important components of bile.

4. digested dietary fats cross the plasma membrane into intestinal cells in this form -

5. enzyme used to digest dietary fats in the intestines - Lipase

6. site of significant fat storage in the body - Adipose cells

Most of the Fat are stored in the adipose tissue present beneath the skin.

There are two type of adipose tissue, they are white adipocyte and brown adipose tissue

7. enzyme activated by PKA that digests stored triacylglycerols - hormone-sensitive lipase

8. digested stored fats exit the cell in this form - Glycerol and 3 fattyacid

Digeated fat are stored in the adipose tissue,muscle cells in the form of Triacylglycerol .When there is a need for energy,these fat droplet breakdown into glycerol and 3 fattyacid into the blood stream.

9. this product of digestion of stored triacylglycerols is used by the liver for gluconeogenesis - Glycerol

10. produced from oxidation of even-number chains of fatty acids - Acetyl Co A

Each 2 carbon present in the fattyacid are converted into Acetyl coA
